RANGETIME - How To Train Your First Shot

  • Ever wonder how to train, or work on a specific skill, at the range? A lot of people do. Here's a sample training session of something that I have been needing to work on recently. Getting the first shot off a little sooner. We do that by training the skill, then apply it, then evaluate it. Singles, doubles, then the bill drill. Let us know what you think, and let's see how many people don't watch the whole vid this time in the comments. Gear breakdown and outtakes at the end.

    Man, we need more training videos like this one, this stuff makes me a better instructor. Most channels just advertise and entertain nowadays, I got tons of quality knowledge from Travis Haley, Pat McNamara, Field Notes, Kyle Lamb, and many many more, but I had to dig through a ton of blsht on the way, and now it is even harder. Mostly gear flexing, little skill development, and selling the false idea that cool tactical gear is gonna make you a good shooter. Hope to attend your class one day, much respect from Poland.

    Not gonna lie, this has been so heartening for me. I'm typically practicing at 7 yards with a 2" "goal" target in a 6" acceptable hit zone, and I had been kinda beating myself up for having a ~1.3 first round from compressed ready (indoor range regs). Absolutely saw some parallels to what I personally need to work on too. Great stuff, thanks for sharing with us!

  • @seanwhite304
    @seanwhite304 4 місяці тому +1

    My draw has been pretty consistent at 1.4 to 1.6 . I definitely need to work on getting my master grip faster. I do take that extra 1/4 - 1/8th of a second to make sure my grip is solid . I guess I'm over confirming my grip lol . I worked really hard on that grip and it drives me crazy when I do not get it out of the holster. My split times usually hover around 0.25 to 0.30 .
    I'm a space cadet when it comes to dryfire . I practice the shit I need too for 3 or 4 reps then my A.D.D. goes full send .
    Awesome video bro. I've learned a lot from watching Ben , Matt , you and other YT University Professors.

  • @OurLifeIs
    @OurLifeIs 4 місяці тому

    Love the video. One thing I would say though is when you have those draws that you don't like you have to still push through that and finish the drill. In real life you won't get that "Oh messed that one up" moment. You might be creating a bad habit and it will show up in the worst of times. When I train no matter if I catch my shirt or don't like how I grabbed the gun I push my brain to keep moving and shoot. I do love everything though thank you for the great video!

  • @aribpm
    @aribpm 4 місяці тому

    I do a cold draw and single shot every time I hit the range. One shot, 15 yards on the plate rack. 1.50 is a decent time where I don’t feel like I’m missing anything. Then I work from there. Usually speeds up a little the more chances I get.

    Nice shooting. I had a friend just attend one of ya'lls classes. It was around Austin. He came away knowing he needs to work on his fundamentals. I agree that he does. For me if I get a bad grip I am just going to press on with the drill. Likely real world it will be less than ideal. Maybe I am wrong. That might enforce bad habits. Not sure though. My thought is the stop for a redo in the real world might be a bigger training "scar"

      re-acquired his red dot on the pairs his head tilted down, costing his eyes time to verify his dot. He also seemed super fast getting his gun up and out, then dead space before the shot broke. Excellent work being put in, but nearly everyone can key in on things and improve.

    Should show us how you transition to the next target. Think that’s a good next step, especially after the first draw. Many folk lose that red dot at transition as well. It’s definitely something I constantly work on because that dot could disappear out of the blue. Many times I’m not sure what I did wrong.

  • @SnapD24

    I feel like this was a cool demo, and you reminded me that I definitely need to start recording myself again. Your draw looks fine, but it seems like you're still over-confirming at the end of your presentation. Like I can see it stop for a measure before you pull the trigger. Seems like either your index isn't quite right or you're getting sucked into the dot.
    Good to have you back, and thanks for the questions Tom.

      Sometimes it’s once a week, sometimes once a month depending on the schedule. I travel a lot. I think once a week is enough if you’re dry firing in between and really depends on the quality of the session. More is usually better though if you can.

      Even tho he doesn't have a concealed aiwb holster, and clearing his garmet, and all that, he still is working everything else. Confirmation levels, grip, vision. And then everything that goes on with shooting a bill drill, eyes being disciplined staring at one spot, grip staying durable and consistent. For you to say it's just a fun range day and has nothing to do with a self defense situation says alot about you. Shooting is shooting is shooting. Is it not?

    In my opinion, the default training should be from concealed. Most people are not LEO and cannot carry their gun the way you do on the range. To me, it doesn't make much sense to put so much time into training the draw and first shot from the battle belt set up b/c that is not what we wear in public. Sure, some of the skills carry over, but I think the training should look as similar to real world as possible. (Of course it is more fun to wear the OWB holster b/c we can go faster : )

    your arms don't have to be locked out before firing your first shot at 7 yds, with work you should be recovering for the second round by the time you lock your arms.
